Cut in the butter, with a pastry cutter or 2 knives, until the mixture is crumbly.
Add the egg, lemon juice and water to the flour mixture.
Knead lightly into a ball; then divide into 8 equal parts.
Roll out each part; on a floured board until it is 1/4 inch thick, then cut into 4 inch squares.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon previously made Poppy Seed Filling into the center of each square.
Bring two ends together to form a cylinder. Pinch together to seal.
